Victoria Taylor: CCTV released as police search for missing woman in Malton

Police have released a new CCTV image of a 34-year-old woman who has been missing for four days.

Victoria Taylor was last seen at her home address in Malton, North Yorkshire, at 9am on Monday.

Officers said the CCTV image was captured later the same morning, at 11.35am, at a BP garage on Welham Road in the Norton area of the town.

Detectives also revealed on Thursday that “a number of personal possessions belonging to Victoria” had been found close to the River Derwent, which runs through Malton.

A spokesperson said “extensive searches”, including of the river, had been carried out following the discovery.

They added: “We have used drones to search the area from above, carried out multiple enquiries and reviewed hours of CCTV from around Malton where Victoria was last seen.”

It comes after North Yorkshire Police announced on Wednesday that searches of riverbanks in Malton would be carried out by the force’s specialist underwater search team.

Inspector Martin Dennison said in a new statement on Thursday: “We are very concerned about Victoria’s whereabouts and, like her family and friends, just want to see her safe and well.

“I would urge the public to be cautious if looking for Victoria near the river. Our officers have specialist training and equipment, and they are used to working in various terrains.”

He added: “If you do have any information which can help with the search then please call us 101. Any immediate sightings should be reported to 999.”
